Arbor and Advantech unveiled Linux-ready Mini-ITX boards using Intel's 6th Gen Skylake CPUs, with options ranging from a 25W Xeon to a 65W Core i7-6700. A month before Intel's formal announcement of its 6th Gen Core (Skylake) processors in early September, several Windows-based, gaming oriented Mini-ITX boards were announced from ASRock, Asus, Gigabyte, EVGA, and ECS. Now Advantech and Arbor have announced more embedded-oriented Mini-ITX boards that support Linux, as well as Windows. Arbor's website does not list Linux support, but a spokesperson told us it will likely support Ubuntu LTS.
